What it means to love one another with God's love
My boyfriend Ram and I decided to try out a new restaurant tonight on the beach near my house. When we arrived, the person at the front, who appeared to be the manager, came up to us. We motioned where we would like to be seated and he swiftly and somewhat rudely turned us aside to the opposite side of the restaurant. It seemed very strange to me and I could feel something wrong with his action but was not able to quite put my finger on just what was going on.
Our service throughout the meal was very good as was the food and the view of the ocean. It was a wonderful night together as we shared our food and thoughts. However, toward the end of the meal, or the perceived end of the meal on the part of the manager, we were told we would need to leave soon. We were brought the check earlier than is normal during a meal. The manager himself came over twice to see if we had paid the bill yet, on the second occasion telling us that there was a reservation for the table and we needed to leave. (This did not seem to be the kind of restaurant that would even take reservations.) We were rushed and could not even relax during the remainder of the meal. We finally paid the bill and just got up and left.
At first I did not realize what was going on, but as we walked away from the restaurant I began to understand. It dawned on me that he did not like us and that there was a feeling of racism very present each time we had an encounter with this man. I had never been in a situation like this before so at first I was not sure how to react. My initial feelings were of surprise, shock and anger. We were already down the street at the time when we decided we needed to say something to the manager. Ram walked back to the restaurant and I waited and watched nearby. We were there quite a while and no one came to sit at the table we had been made to leave. In fact, another couple was seated in the original area we had wanted to sit in, but were made clear we were not allowed to sit in.
Sitting there watching them talk, I had a peace come over me and began to sing songs in praise of God. Often, singing can be a most sacred prayer for me. God had taken away any anger I felt at the situation and replaced it with peace and love. In my heart, God spoke of the need to pray for this man. There was nothing to be angry at. He was simply a lost soul, someone who does not, at present, know the love of our Lord. When Ram returned, we prayed together for this man, filled with only God's love in our hearts.
When we have God's love in us, we love one another. We love people because He loves us and loves them and His love so fills our hearts.
I am learning what it really means to be a servant of Jesus Christ, what it really means to be a Christian and to walk with the Lord. It is so completely different than the experience of being in the world. To know God and to be filled with His Love is to be renewed, transformed and completely changed. Before belonging to Christ, one is lost, hopeless. foolish and ignorant to the truth of Life. Although, one does not always realize this until being saved, until being held in the arms of Christ. We are His children and He loves us with an unwavering, unmoving, unshakeable and unconditional Love. Nothing in the world will ever fill us or complete us but Him. He is all we've ever needed. His Love endures through all things, strengthens us and wakes us up spiritually to the Truth of Life and all the beauty He has intended for us to have.
We must pray for our enemies (or those who are ignorant, foolish, wicked, souls lost in darkness, souls without the love of God in them). We must love our neighbors. Through God's eyes, we see the truth. With love, we overcome all. For God has overcome the world. He has saved us and we shall pray that others will be filled with God's love as well.
And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. Mark 12:29-31 KJV

Sin, Repentance and Forgiveness - God's Love
It can be easy to get caught up in guilt for that sin. Sincerely repent and ask God's forgiveness and His help with whatever you are dealing with. God loves you and always will.
He gave His life for us to redeem us to Himself. He did this to cover all our sins with His purity and love and we are forgiven for everything. We have salvation in the Lord.
This does not mean however that because God has forgiven us that we should go out and willfully sin, for that is against the Lord and is like driving another nail into Him on the cross that He died on for us.
What it does mean is when we fall, He is there with us, carrying us, never ever letting us go. Remember that. You are never alone. God is with you.

The Rapture
"But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words." 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
"For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ," 1 Thessalonians 5:9
"Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth." Revelation 3:10 KJV
"Praise God !!! He has promised that Christians will not have to suffer through The Tribulation. The Tribulation will bring about suffering, pain, torment and agony like the world has never seen before. Why suffer through all that is coming? Call on Jesus Christ today for your salvation and be prepared for that moment when He calls all Christians home."

Jesus is coming for us soon, are you ready?
Matthew 24
2And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
3And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
4And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
10And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
13But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
14And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
15When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
16Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
17Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
18Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
19And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
20But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
21For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
23Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
24For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
25Behold, I have told you before.
26Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
28For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
29Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
32Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
33So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
34Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
35Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
36But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
37But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
40Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
41Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
42Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
43But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
44Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
45Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
46Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
47Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
48But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
49And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
50The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
51And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Verse of the Day
Colossians 1:9-20
9For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
10That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
11Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
12Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
13Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
14In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
15Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
16For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
17And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
18And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
19For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;
20And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

(Charity)-Love; universal benevolence; good will.
King James Version (KJV)
2And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
3And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
4Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
5Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
8Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

Trust in the Lord
"If God be for us, who can be against us? -Romans 8:31
"For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height. nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. -Romans 8:38
Whatever you may be dealing with, all the turmoil and hardships we go through in this life, know and trust
the Rock upon which our faith is built, Christ Jesus. He is here with you right now, listening and loving you and guiding you're life with His Mighty Hands. He will never leave you nor forsake you.

Thank You
I pray that in some small way it has touched your heart, uplifted your soul and helped you be more trusting in God and His Plan for us who love Him.
For those who haven't known the Lord yet, I hope the articles and videos on this blog have helped you come to know Him a little better and to see beyond the deception of darkness in the world.
There is much more to be added unto this blog, this is only the beginning.
I pray for healing to take place in your life and for you to be transformed by Jesus Christ. His Love will set you free.
Thank you for stopping by. Have a beautiful God filled day of peace, joy, gratitude, love and mercy.
God bless you,
Kristin Willruth

A Little Something to Uplift You
An Undivided Heart
Lord, put in me a new spiritRemove my heart of stone
And give to me a heart of flesh
That trusts in You alone
Oh, That I may fear Your name
Each day right from the start
Oh, Lord, please give to me
An undivided heart.
I want a gaze that never waivers
Or loses sight of the goal
To keep it's focus on obeying You
With mind and body and soul
Help me to walk in submission to Christ
In whole and not in part
Oh, Lord, please give to me
An undivided heart.
I want Your joy to be my greatest strength
Your salvation my impassioned praise
Your holiness to be my way of living
For all the rest of my days
Keep me steadfast in doing Your work
And following the course that You chart
Oh, Lord, please give to me
An undivided heart.
Teach me to daily die to self
And to spend much time in prayer
That I may be discerning of those around me
And treat them with genuine care
I want to be totally true to You
To wear your righteousness as my mark
Oh, Lord, please give to me
An undivided heart.
I want to live the time You've given me
Committed fully to Your purpose and call
Lord, consume me with Your awesome presence
Cause me on my knees to fall
And bow to Your desire for my life
Let no circumstance keep us apart
Oh, Lord, please give to me
An undivided heart.

Romans 12
1I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
2And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
3For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
4For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:
5So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.
6Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
7Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;
8Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.
9Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
10Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;
11Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;
12Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
13Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.
14Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
15Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.
16Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.
17Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
18If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
19Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
20Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
21Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Great Website with interesting, accurate, KJV only, comic style Tracts for Evangelizing. Really inexpensive, effective and easy for anyone to use, even if you are shy or not ready to speak to people about Jesus Christ yet. It is a wonderful thing to share the gospel with others. Every born-again believer has a responsibility to preach the Gospel, i.e., to share the Good News of Jesus Christ crucified with lost sinners so that they can be forgiven and spend eternity in Heaven. If we really love people and wish to serve God, we will share the Truth with them. God will use you to bring the gospel to others, no need to be afraid, He is always with you.
